Blast From The Past: Magic Eyes! I used to be really good at them, but when I flipped through the pages tonight I found myself very frustrated. Maybe that says something about the quality of my sight, or maybe I'm just tired...but there's definitely a parallel to be made here...
For those of you who have never attempted a Magic Eye before, you basically stare at a blurry mess just long enough that you almost start to get a headache and then, miraculously, a 3D image appears. Life can be like a Magic Eye - confusing, chaotic, headache-inducing...but then moments of clarity can happen and you suddenly understand how the mysterious ways of the universe can come together in exactly the way it was meant to.
While I don't believe that everything that happens to us in our daily lives is controlled by God, I do believe that God has a plan for us - that we have a purpose to fulfill within our life and that we often don't understand what that is until we have already arrived at our destination...after more than a few challenges and headaches along the way :-)
Romans 8
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
